Product Insights

The D'ORSAY 3:50 Comme La Dernière Fois candle, priced at 200 CAD but currently out of stock, tells an artistic story: a 3:50 AM studio encounter within a unisex narrative that challenges gender norms. Crafted by Olivia Giacobetti using only five raw materials for a transparent, cocooning scent anchored by almond wood and white cedar, it offers a 75-hour burn time in a refillable glass-and-brass jar hand-poured by a Provence workshop and requiring over eight artisans. Its deep sale price of $49.95 makes the jar effectively free versus the $65 refill, a value offset by scarce user feedback—the sole review describes a perfumey, airy scent with no burn test—and the risk of a tradeoff between narrative depth and subjective fragrance preference.

    I got 3.50 and 4.30 during my recent Premier Ave haul. I haven't burned them yet and probably won't for a little while, but on cold they smelled pretty perfumey to me (not in a bad way).
